Jacob S. Barrett commented on GEODE-2733: ----------------------------------------- [~mmartell] Please include references to filed bug report. > Crash during initialization using Xcode 8.3 > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: GEODE-2733 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2733 > Project: Geode > Issue Type: Bug > Components: native client > Reporter: Michael Dodge > > Circa 27 March 2017, Apple released the macOS 10.12.4 and Xcode 8.3 updates. > After applying those updates, all native client executables (e.g., unit > tests, integration tests, quickstarts) crashes with a SIGSEGV/EXC_BAD_ACCESS > with pthread_mutex_lock() which is part of the initialization of the ACE > libraries. We don't know whether it's caused by an incompatibility between > ACE and the 10.12.4 runtimes (e.g., a struct has changed in size) or if it's > an actual bug in the runtimes. Mike Martell found a bug that has already been > filed with Apple about Emacs crashing with pthread-related problems after > this update, so our current theory is that there's a problem in the pthreads > library from Apple. > UPDATE: Dave Barnes installed just macOS 10.12.4 and has had no problems. > Thus, it appears that Xcode 8.3 is the culprit. Anecdotal evidence suggests > that Xcode 8.3 has other problems, too, which may or may not be related to > the crashes. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
